PRESET APPLICATIONS
This chapter describes the C400XL presets
and their suggested applications. You are of
course encouraged to experiment and twist
controls to reach an optimal result for your
specific application.
Composite
Use the composite preset when you have a
complex or multi faceted signal like a full-mix
signal. You can use it in both compressor and
expander mode. The C400XL does the work for
you – what was previously a complex operation
has now become a simple operation thanks to
the optimized composite preset.

Female vocal
The female vocal preset is tailor made for high
pitched vocals. In compression mode it will
bring out the sonic qualities of your taste. You’ll
immediately be amazed about the audible
perfection you can attain with this multi-band
preset.

Male vocal
Male vocals often becomes a bit muddy due to
their lower pitch. For optimal clarity and
performance, you should apply this multi-band
compression preset, which brings out the true
essence of your vocals.

Voc. Choir
If you want your backing vocals to stand out,
while preserving the “group-like” character that
a band of singers have, the Voc. Choir preset
will do the job. Use the compressor to control
the gain of your source or use the expander to
lower the noise floor.

Speech
For pure speech and oratory signals, you
should use the Speech preset. It is optimized
for signals with a lesser dynamic fluctuation
than what you’ll find in e.g. vocals on a musical
track. The preset is a multi-band compression/
wideband expansion preset in respectively
compressor/expander modes.

Bass guitar
One thing that all bass players hate, is
unintentional muddy-ness to their sound. The
bass guitar preset ensures that your bass is
“smack in the face”. Apply this multi-band
compressor for great results on your bass
sound retaining the sonic qualities of your entire
signal.

Electric guitar
Most often electric guitars have no problem
cutting through in the mix. However, controlling
both low, mid and high frequency peaks often is
often essential to getting a homogenous result.
Multiband compression is a great but often
overseen tool for guitars. Guitars system are
due to their nature also very often related to a
high amount of noise. Therefore a
gate/expander is a standard too when
processing guitars. C400XL delivers both.
